Under my form load, I am displaying a message box so that if the user does not qualify right off the bat, I just end the program. I want to make the message box font appear larger for those with not so good eye sight. Is there a way to do this. I tried making my form.font larger but that doesn't work. Thanks!
 
The msgbox fonts come from Windows system settings and can be different from PC to PC. Just create a form that looks like a message box, set the font as required and display it modally.

Go to "Start / Settings / Control Panel / Display / Appearance" and click on the message box. In the controls below you can change the font (color, size, bold, italic) that windows uses to display message boxes.
